Roughly two decades into the field, Dwayne Dancy is now his own boss, running Isoparm Design Group down in DUMBO. The firm works on both commercial and residential projects spanning multiple eastern states. Dancy's work in Brooklyn also includes teaching his craft as a ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ adjunct. His own academic journey led to both an HBCU and Ivy League pedigree, snagging a bachelor's from Howard and a master's from Columbia. But he was largely taught a eurocentric curriculum of architecture, even at a historically-Black college, with a heavy emphasis on Greek temples and columns—Doric, ionic, the whole shebang.


CUNY TV's Carol Anne Riddell gets a lesson in dessert making and intense teamwork at ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ with pastry chef Susan Lifrieri-Lowry, Department of Hospitality Management chair Karen Goodlad, and student Patrick Sewell. The program creates food both for the palette as well as the eyes, and goes into accounting, wine-making, tourism, lodging operations, the restaurant scene, and all different levels of the industry.

The research of professors in film production does not come in the form of statistics but in the form of artistic works. Associate Professor Ryayo Terao recently directed a documentary on 13 driver's licenses that were discovered in Lichtenfels, a small town in Germany. The licenses had been confiscated from Jewish citizens in 1938 and then lay hidden in the basement of the local county office. The film focuses on their discovery in 2017 and the unique events that happened next.
